Each child is required to submit an expense form indicating all expenses as well as their float

After 13:00 the Grade 7’s will be expected to tidy up the field and pack up. Thereafter the groups
will be given reconciliation sheets and moneybags and will have to count the money themselves.
Once this is done the groups will hand in checked money to their respective EMS teacher. Each
group will only be signed off after their money has been handed in. All expenses will be
reimbursed during the EMS lessons.

Please collect the Grade 7’s from the junior school at 14:30.

NB: If a group has made a loss on the day, their reimbursement of expenses will be limited to the
total amount made on the Market Day. Any shortfalls will not be covered by the school. We
encourage them to keep their costs as low as possible and the profits made from the Market Day
will be used towards a gift to De La Salle Holy Cross College Junior School.
